Those episode title pages don't mean anything really. It's probably just the case that no one has increased it to 24 yet.

Edit: Another piece of new from the official site. Megumi Nakajima will be voicing the twins, Chiho Mihara and Chise Mihara. Nakajima is also singing the ED for the series.

Shame it's not Tanaka Rie, though i like this choice. It just means we'll have Ranka twins.

^ - YEYYY! That's good news

From wikipedia, the opening is titled to be 'magic number'. I wish it would another Platinum, I love that song. Maybe Maaya Sakamoto would voice a minor character, like Tsubasa.

New picture time! It has Kobato and Kohaku and it's a big picture.

Hm. Kohaku looks young in that picture. Not sure if I'm pleased with that.

This serie look cool, I will try some episode when it will be out! I love CLAMP works.

It's what happens when an old CLAMP character is drawn again with their current style.

I like it anyway. Looking much more adorable.

Yeah i know.

It's actually a very cute fit.

Finally, we have a promo video! It's up on Kadokawa Youtube channel.

This is truly everything i dreamed it would be. The adaptation looks so colorful and alive, i love it. As expected, Hanazawa Kana fits Kobato nicely, and Inada Tetsu for Ioryogi is just genius.

Oh god i can't wait for this.

[Katapan]

Oh boy, this should definitely do the manga justice. The art is really colorful, and hearing Kobato and Ioryogi interact should be a real treat since the voices are so close to what I had in mind. And then even the Maaya OP, which may not reach the heights of Platinum (sorry, I couldn't help the comparison!), but makes me look forward to hearing the TV-size version anyway.

Yet another trailer I only have praises for. I've rarely been this hyped for a new season.

[Lilith]

I can hardly wait to see Kobato clumsiness. I'm very happy to see another collaboration between CLAMP and Maaya Sakamoto~

My only anticipated show of fall season. The promo looks great, I liked the blush on Kobato, and I definitely loved her in chibi form.

[Shiroth]

Okay, i've watched the video about 50 times now. That's enough for now.

Going by the preview, it looks like the series will start with the Exam chapters as i expected, though it's unsure how many episodes that will go on for. I think the first two, three pushing it.

Also all those scenes are from the first episode. How do i know, well you can see that Kobato is wearing the same outfit in each scene.

CLAMP promised a different outfit each episode, and it looks that we'll get it.

[musume_no_hoshi]

The opening sound like a bit like 'Get no Satisfaction', it's no Platinum, but it's a nice opening. I don't think we can get another classic.

Kobata is practically the new 'CCS' for me. I'm looping this trailer like there's no tomorrow. Definately the fall anime that I look forward the most.

[wandering-dreamer]

Finally finally finally! Kobato's voice is a bit higher than expected but Ioryogi is sooo deep that it's both perfect and hysterical at the same time!
And I agree, all from the same episode, and that does look like one of the chapters where she's trying to get the bottle (it looks like Ioryogi is debriefing her in the playground tunnel and Kobato is attempting to make noodles).
Gah, hurry up October!

[Sakuya]

I absolutely adore Kobato's voice already! As for Ioryogi's, it was deeper than what I had in mind but it works well too. Can't wait! It looks SUPER high quality.

[Albafica]

It looks cool, the art is great; Kobato is cute

The amount of people all over the net saying they don't like Inada Tetsu voicing Ioryogi because he sounds like Kurogane is over the top.

I don't think he sounds like Kurogane at all though. Just a bit too deep than my imagining of Ioryogi. But I already got used to it after playing the trailer over and over.

I've heard him in many roles over the years, so that's why i don't think Kurogane straight away.
